High License is everywhere coming to the
front as the most promising and elective ilhc
upon which to carry forward temperance re-
form. In some States it has been associated
with locai option, and there IS littic douoo
that the latter principle also would commend
itself to our Republican legislators were thcy
FREQ tn act for the best interest OF the whole
community. But the notorious bias OF the
Governor stands in the way. and the objections
raised by him to the temperance measures OF
the last Legislature operate as standing warn
ings against the introduction OF any principles
which may afford excuse for the plea of IN
equal legislation, and SO furnish ground for
another Executive veto. When the High
License bill comes up for discussion 1t is pos
sbIc that reason may be seen for amending 1t
in some minor details. But the principle on
which it rests is sound and it Is upon this
principle if at ALL that practical temperance
reform must be sought. Once more the be-
levers in temperance who have been training
with the futile third party are Afforded an
opportunty TO aid in the enactment Of tenn
pcrancc law the effectiveness OF which Is
already proved by lis success III other States.
But whether or not these repent Of their wasted
time and energy and return to the region OF
sane and sober craftsmanship. the Rcpubhcan
party is bound to push forward IN the pain
Of Temperance reform. and 1t Will do It's duty.

THE PRAc1ICAL 1nMphRAyce cAMpAIGA

THE PRACTICAL 1EMPERd NCE CIWP4IGN
Once moro, while the third-pary Prohibi-
t0nists are combining their efforts to dccidIa-
tons ON behalf Of impossible legislation and
resistance to every practical measure Of tenn
pcuncc reform, the Republican opponents Of
the rum power are preparing to press upon the
State Legislature measures which promise
real and important restriction OF the drink
evil. 1t is not their fault that their work is
hampcrcd and mpedcd by the patent alliance
between Governor Hill and the liquor trade,
bui tins fact must be taken into account in
problem presented to them is not the compare
lively simple one Of devlSing a law which viii
diminish drunkenness and its attendant evils.
They arc compelled first of all to fame a bill
which the Governor will have no excuse for
refusing to sign. Perhaps the attempt to draft
such law is almost as bcsct with difficulties
as the quadration of the circle or the search
FOR the Philosophers Stone. for when an En-
ccutivo il pledged TO defeat all practical tenn
pcrancC legislation. the intrinsic virtues Of any
conceivable bill are apt TO kick the beam when
weighed against the promptings Of his selfish
interests.
Nevertheless, the new High License bin
about 10 be introduced by Mr.. Ernest Crosby
at Albany is sound and practical measure.
Founded on the Illinois Harper law, its main
principles arc in no way experimental. They
have stood the test Of actual practice in illinois.

DrrIrS 0N PERSONAL B4GGAGE.

Senator Phtt evidently proposes to see
whether something cannot be done to spare
travellers coming from foreign countries the
needless irritation and annoyance to which
they are now sub cctcd at the custom houses,
cspccally i'm Ncw-Yorli. When the Govern
ucut va, under the control Of The party which
b.licycs in a protective taif, the Laws and
regulation, were Interpreted in reasonable
way. Every effort WAS made To prevent snug
cling. Of course, and articles of considerable
value. whether carried in the personal baggage
of the passenger or not, were always required
to pay duty; but there was no unnecessary
friction or cNaCtion IN the enforcement oil the
law. Now, however, that Il party which Is
hostile to a protective tariff has come into
mower the law is enforced with an oiciouS
zeal that suggests a desire to make the very
name Of tann odiouS. Passengers are SUD
lcclcd to methods Of search that are annoying
and almost degrading. Duties are cNactcd upon
the most trGing alliClcS-a little uinkct OF no
special value, an inexpensive souvenir small
remnant Of cloth And with all this there seems
TO be a willingness TO hanss the traveller
which is not consistent with a proper admins
tration of the custom house. Complaints of
this kind were rife especially during the last
season.
Senator Platt has introduced resolution
which was referred to the Committee on
Finance, directing it to inquire into the pro-
ricty and cApcdicncy Of cNcmptlng from duty
10 limited extent articles which may be con-
tanned in the personal baggage 0fany passenger
arriving at any port of entry. provided that
the articles 50 exempted are not intended Tor
sale and that all other dutiabic articles con-
tanned in such baggage shall have been duly
declared By such passenger. There seems to
be no good reason why such Il plan should not
he adopted. Such law would need to be care
fully framed to prevent faud but It presents
no serious Obstacles Now that the Govern
mcnt is seeking for ways To prevent revenue
from pouring in, here is way in which it can
stop one small source, and at the same tune
save our tourist class much petty annoyance.
